39. [37] This model is based upon the approach of J. P. Bondorf et al., Nucl. Phys. A443, 321 (1985), but has a more careful account of structure effects.
40. [38] The N/Z of the residue is independent of the choice for the incompressibility of the symmetric matter part of the EOS and independent of the choice of in-medium nucleon-nucleon cross section [9]. The mass of the residue is influenced by the latter two choices but is immaterial to the main issues of the present work.
